YGC Invests in Global Education to Further National Growth

The Yuchengco Group of Companies’ (YGC) House of Investments (HI) continues to boost its contributions toward nation-building through strategic global partnerships under its education investment arm, iPeople, Inc. Through iPeople’s Mapúa schools, a collaboration with Arizona State University (ASU) has been established—setting the tone for the group’s long-term vision of creating sustainable futures where Filipinos can thrive and compete globally. 

“With YGC’s visionary leadership and steadfast support, iPeople schools are fully empowered to deliver world-class education to Filipino students. We want to continue developing highly employable, future-ready Filipino graduates who are more equipped to adapt to global events, thus increasing economic productivity, national stability, and eventually global recognition,” says Dr. Dodjie Maestrecampo, President and CEO of Mapúa University and the Mapúa Education Group.

Mapúa University is one of the network of schools under iPeople, which also includes Malayan Colleges Laguna, Malayan Colleges Mindanao, Malayan High School of Science, National Teachers College, and University of Nueva Caceres.
